Space is Awesome!

So, today is my "catch up with readings" for my Space Policy class. (Ok, I've only actually gotten through 1 of about 50 readings, but it's only 2pm, right?) Anyway, this has reminded me that space and space exploration, are awesome.

Did you know that there is a new Lunar X-Prize? You can with 30 million dollars land a robot on the moon and it travels 500 meters. Google is throwing in all sorts of extras, too.
